Aroma starts kind of light and muted, but after a few minutes in the glass it blossoms and becomes a nice bouquet of oaky, spicy and sweet citrusy notes with a touch of dark sweetness; Palate comes through as a more complex version of the aroma with more fruit notes and a bigger dose of the dill-like spice; Finish is the perfect dark fade of oak and sweets with a bright pop of citrus.

@TheWhiskeyJug Thanks. Good to know that the regular is better. Always disappointing to pay up for a downgrade.
@ContemplativeFox It's just slightly above average good. The regular release is better than this 1 barrel.
Reading your notes, this sounds really good. Why only a 3?
